34 weeks and 3 days pregnant!
Today has been one of those 'challenging' days that parents talk about. You know, the kind of day when you're just not feeling it and nothing around you is helping. Moving on, before I start a rant.
This morning I had my blood work done finally, and I'm sure my OB is not going to be pleased when I see her tomorrow afternoon and she doesn't have the results yet because they take a week. It's all about this pesky 'Anti-M Antibody' issue. Most people will never have to deal with this, and in all honesty, it hasn't been that much trouble for us. I notice that I'm really tired, but I've never had much sympathy when people tell me how tired they are, so for me, it's just not an excuse for not keeping up with my own life, know what I mean? So I keep on going, as I usually would, despite the weariness, because like I just said, being tired is a terribly lame excuse. So, that's the only thing I really notice about having this weird antibody while pregnant is my energy level. But I keep thinking, if I can keep my stamina up with this fighting against me, imagine how much energy I'll have when I'm all back to normal!
And while we're on the subject of back to normal, we're almost there! This new wee one is due in early December, so we've got about a month left to go, and Richard was born three weeks early, so there's no way to tell if we're going to go early again or not. Chris has given notice at work that he may have to run out of the office sometime in the near future, and everyone there is so cool they're just excited for him, and have no issue with him running off at a moment's notice. I know there is going to be a whole lot of sleep lost in the first little while, but at least I'll be able to use the energy I get from whatever sleep I do get. I'm feeling more energized already!
